Turbulence Bluffs information


Turbulence Bluffs (67°9′S 56°29′E / 67.150°S 56.483°E / -67.150; 56.483) is an area with three high bluffs with vertical faces on the northwest that merges with an ice sheet on the southeast. It is located along the east side of Robert Glacier, 18.5 miles (29.8 km) northeast of Rayner Peak in Enderby Land. The area was mapped through ANARE (Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions) surveys and air photos between 1954 and 1966. It received its name due to severe turbulence encountered while attempting a helicopter landing in 1965.
